ASIC Verification Engineer

Key Responsibilities

· The candidate will be responsible for verifying advanced controller and peripheral IPs including PCIe, DDR/LPDDR, CXL, Ethernet, UAL Controllers, and AMBA peripherals. The role demands hands-on verification experience, autonomous debugging capability, and the ability to develop robust verification environments and test cases from scratch.

· Develop and maintain UVM/SystemVerilog-based verification environments for complex controller and peripheral IPs.

· Perform verification activities for PCIe Controllers (including PCIe Gen7), DDR/LPDDR Controllers, CXL interfaces, High-Speed Ethernet, UAL Controllers, and AMBA peripherals.

· Design, implement, and execute comprehensive test plans and verification strategies.

· Create new test cases, sequences, assertions, and coverage models from scratch to ensure functional correctness and protocol compliance.

· Utilize industry-standard protocol VIPs for efficient verification and protocol validation. Debug simulation failures independently and perform root-cause analysis for complex issues.

· Analyze coverage metrics and improve verification quality to achieve coverage closure.

Support regression runs, issue tracking, and continuous improvement of verification methodologies.
